The effective tax rate on loss from continuing operations was 18.2 percent for the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 4.9 percent for the six months ended June 30, 2018. The benefit on the losses for these periods was decreased primarily due to nondeductible permanent discrete adjustment associated with the $90.0 of goodwill impairment charge and the impacts of the Tax Act, more specifically, impacts related to the global intangible low-taxed income (GILTI) on the estimated annual tax rate. The effective tax rate could vary in future periods based on the Company’s earnings before taxes and clarifications around the Tax Act.

The effective tax rate on loss from continuing operations was 60.6 percent for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 43.7 percent for the six months ended June 30, 2017. The tax rate on the loss for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 was increased due to the jurisdictional income (loss) mix and varying statutory rates in the Company’s global footprint. These increases to the overall tax rate for these periods was offset in part by additional discrete expense items recognized in the quarter related to uncertain tax positions.
